In 1908, Watkin R. Roberts, a 22 year old Welshman, set off to India to share the Christian message with the people of India.

The North Eastern Hmar tribe were regarded as savages. In 1871, they beheaded over 500 British soldiers. Roberts, equipped with a New Testament, entered the region and shared the goodnews of Jesus with the Hmar people over several years. He primarily taught from the gospel of John.

As a ten year old boy, Rochunga made a 96 mile (150 km) journey alone through the jungles to attend a misson school. His father wanted him to learn to read and write and help the Hmar people to read God's Word. Rochunga made this trip alone four times a year.
